Involving students in Cyber-In

The last stage of the Erasmus+ KA2 project Cyber-In officially started last week during our transnational meeting in Roskilde (Denmark). After researching about cybersecurity skills in OT environments, with the collaboration of almost 40 companies from Basque Country, Denmark, Italy, Estonia and the Netherlands, and the development of training materials addressed to VET teachers/trainers we are now in the stage of involving students to benefit from a higher knowledge and skills in terms of cybersecurity in industrial environments. From October to December, teachers from Maristak Durango (ES), Roskilde Technical School (DK) and ROC Da Vinci (NL) will work to develop a challenge based activity addressed to students in IT and OT programmes, promoting their international and transdisciplinary collaboration. Students will have 3 months to solve the challenge proposed and will present their findings at the beginning of March in Durango (Basque Country). Excited to bring students on board to the Cyber-In project!

Network of Networks Internationalization Team Meets in Bilbao

 One of the working teams from Network of Networks  met in Bilbao to prepare for a student exchange program that will take place next year. In this pilot program, in which Bilbao will be the host city, approximately 30 EQF level 3-4 vocational training students from the Netherlands, Finland, Ireland, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the Basque Country are expected to participate, along with 10 teachers. The topic they will work on will be related to one of the EU values: human rights, specifically discrimination based on various factors (gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation) and how this affects both internships and career prospects. In addition, the internationalization team also spent their time working on a future proposal for the Erasmus+ “Jean Monnet Networks” action, to embed European values ​​and policies in the context of vocational training. It has been two extremely productive days!
